Shohei Ohtani questionable to pitch on Monday after being hit by pitch

Shohei Ohtani was scheduled to pitch for the Angels on Monday. That seems to be up in the air now after the two-way player was hit by a pitch on his elbow on Sunday in the first inning.

He remained in the game, but Angels manager Joe Maddon couldn’t give a firm answer following the game about Ohtani’s status for Monday.

“He’s sore,” Maddon said to the media. “He’s being looked at right now. I talked to him during the course of the game. I don’t know how sore it’s gonna be tonight, or tomorrow morning, so that’ll be something we have to look at regarding him pitching tomorrow.
